This is funny. I was checking for "nose block" in Wikipedia just minutes ago to find out why my nose block lasted for days. Then, I searched for "nose bleed" intending to gain some general knowledge about it. The moment Wiki shows the page with detailed descriptions about nose bleeding, my right nose started to bleed!!! Drama drama!!! It's so scary, I've never had this sort of encounter in my life. What's the probability of such occurence? I wonder. Two tissue papers soaked in blood (^o^). As I was waiting for the blood to clot while reading Wiki for causes of nosebleed, it's such a comfort to find out that mine is just a minor case. Phew~Praise God. My last nose bleed happened probably about 12 or 13 years ago, primary 3 (ate too much Thai durians). Was a bit caught off-guard.
"The flow of blood normally stops when the blood clots, which may be encouraged by direct pressure and reducing the blood pressure in the head by sitting upright with the head tilted forward for about 10 minutes. Tilting the head back is not advised, as it can lead to blood flowing into the respiratory system, and possibly resulting in vomiting or death."-excerpted from Wikipedia. It's important to know this, because my dear mum used to ask us sisters to tilt our heads back whenever we had nosebleed. I learnt that her way of treatment was wrong in Primary 4. Form teacher said to a classmate with nosebleed: tilt your head forward!! Memories~
Timely comfort led by the Holy Spirit? Sure yes if you ask me. Coincidence you suggest? I'll reckon that you do some maths calculation with probability to find out how often things like this happen. How creative God can be in doing things, I'm amused.
Nosebleed stopped completely by now. Praise God!
